Wsup AI review: I miss it, and here's where to go now

• Character chats worked through 2026-05-24
• From 2026-05-25 through 2026-06-18 the app was read-only
• On 2026-06-19 it closed fully
• Today, wsup.ai redirects to the generic homepage of now.gg, the platform that hosted it

So if you're asking why Wsup AI is not working, that's the whole reason. The characters, the login and every route back into the product are gone.

It closed as quietly as it lived. To me it was the genre's punk venue, gone the way of actual punk venues, and I still miss it with the same sternness. If you miss it too, you're in good company.

This Wsup AI review is therefore part memory, part moving guide: what I loved, what the closure means, the unrelated product using the name, and where I'd go instead. If you liked browsing lots of community characters, my CrushOn AI review is one of the first pages I'd read next.

What I remember best is the front door, because there wasn't one. In February 2026 I started chatting without an account: no sign-up, instant chat. That's rare, and I loved it.

Wsup AI sign-up is no longer possible, though. The domain doesn't lead to the product, so there's no account to create and no free plan to start. That also settles whether Wsup AI chat free still exists: it doesn't, on any plan.

The Wsup AI at a glance box right after this shows mostly empty fields for exactly that reason, and I prefer an honest blank to a guess.

If you want a paid app with pictures and voice to replace it, my Candy AI review and its free start covers one option. Know that its free start is small.

I had to stop pushing my book cart at work because I was laughing too hard, and I muttered one of the ghost's lines in the sorting room. A page at my library now repeats it without knowing where it came from. That's the best review I can give any Wsup AI chat: it leaked into real life.

Was it polished? No, and that was part of the charm. Scenes fell apart right when you'd expect, and I didn't mind one bit. If you want order, you'll find that elsewhere. If you want a room full of voices doing something ridiculous together, Wsup was that room.

The same no-account setup had a sad side. With no account, there's no record it ever existed. My screenshots are the only archive, and an unarchived thing that brought me joy haunts a library worker slightly. I can't pull up a chat history, and neither can anyone else.

That's the one lesson I'd carry to your next app. If you build long stories or a detailed character, keep your own copy of the parts you care about, such as the character's personality and backstory, in a plain note. Then a closure is a move, not a loss.

Memory, voice and images on Wsup aren't on record, and I won't fill them in from the fog of spring. My page on how I check the apps explains why missing facts stay blank here rather than getting guessed.

In practice, it no longer matters much. A content setting in a closed app changes nothing for you today, and the new WSUP AI at wsupai.app is a separate product whose rules would have to be read on its own site. I wouldn't assume anything carries over: not the content level, not the characters and not the price.

What does matter is how you judge the next app. When you move on, I'd look at three facts first: what the free plan really gives, whether adult content is allowed and on which plan, and how billing appears on your statement. Those three answers tell you far more than a slogan on a landing page.

I'd add a fourth after Wsup: whether the app gives you any record of your own chats. An account and a chat history feel like paperwork until the day the service goes quiet. My screenshots are proof that a folder of images is a poor archive.

And one thought on the name. Searching for Wsup AI unblocked or a mirror won't bring the old app back, because the product itself is gone. Anything that claims to be the old service deserves suspicion.

If you'd like to compare content rules across apps that still run, my full list of app reviews shows each app's policy in the same place, which makes the comparison quick.

What about the new WSUP AI at wsupai.app? Its press release says former users' purchases did not transfer. So anything you paid for on the old service stays with the old service. I'd treat the new product like any unknown app: read its prices and refund terms on its own pages before spending anything, and start on its smallest option.

Nomi AI has a permanent free plan with 50 messages a day, up to 400 characters per message and no ads. Its Standard Plan Monthly is $15.99; the yearly option is $99.99, about $8.33 per month. That's the fairest free start of the four in my eyes.

Candy AI starts at €13.99 for the 1-Month Plan, and the 12-Month Plan is €47.88, which is €3.99 a month. A year at that rate is cheap, but I wouldn't lock in a year before a month shows you like it.

OurDream AI's free plan lists 55 Dreamcoins to start at 1 Dreamcoin per message, though its help centre says it doesn't currently offer free dreamcoins. Its Standard Monthly is $19.99, the priciest entry here.

GirlfriendGPT hands new users 30 coins and 20 bonus messages that never expire, then adds 10 a day through Daily Login.

For a former Wsup regular on a budget, my pick is Nomi AI, because its free plan doesn't run dry after one evening. It also has group chats on paid plans, the closest thing to my haunted video store. For a broader view, my list of the best AI chat character apps ranks the options by what they give free.

• Stop looking for mirrors: the original service closed fully on 2026-06-19
• Treat wsupai.app as a new, unrelated company, since its own release says it isn't affiliated with the former service
• Check your card statement or store subscriptions for anything still linked to the old app
• Rebuild your favourite characters from your own notes or screenshots rather than hoping for an import
• Start free on the next app before you pay for anything

A word on OurDream AI, since many former Wsup users want lots of characters plus built-in media. Its Standard Monthly at $19.99 includes unlimited messages with any AI character, image and video generation, a monthly 1,000 dreamcoins, and group chat as well. The free start is where I hesitate, since the free coin situation is unclear.

Other reviewers report its videos are short and coin-hungry, so I'd budget for that. My OurDream AI review has the full picture, including its 14-day Quality Guarantee.

Look through your card statement and store subscriptions for any recurring charge you don't recognise, and cancel it where you bought it.

My practical advice: if you shared anything sensitive in old chats, assume it may still exist somewhere, and don't repeat it in the next app unless its privacy terms say plainly how chats are stored and deleted. For me, the loss is the archive, not the data. My screenshots are all that's left, and I'd rather they were a choice than an accident.

I'd give it the caution I give any brand-new app: small steps, no personal details and a read of its own terms first. If its pages answer the basic questions clearly, such as what the free plan gives and how to cancel, that's a good sign; if they dodge them, walk away.

If what you miss is freedom in your stories, my guide to uncensored AI chat apps lists options that still run and say what they allow.

There's no plan I'd buy here, because there's no plan at all. What bothers me most is the loss of accounts, characters and chats, with no transfer to anything, and in my case no account to lose in the first place, only screenshots. If you were a fan, the smart move is to start free somewhere that still runs, and keep your own notes this time. That's what I'd tell anyone who misses the punk venue as much as I do.

• Nomi AI for steady daily chat: a never-ending free plan, 50 daily messages, no ads
• GirlfriendGPT for a slow free start: 20 bonus messages that don't expire, then 10 more a day from Daily Login
• OurDream AI for built-in image and video generation on its paid plans, plus group chat
• Candy AI for images and voice calls, with plans from €13.99 a month

If you used the old app mainly as a Wsup AI girlfriend, Nomi AI is the one I'd try first. Its free plan renews every day without coins or login streaks, which makes it the calmest place to rebuild a companion from your own notes. Other reviewers report proactive long-term memory too, including a Mind Map the app assembles itself once you're around 500 messages in.

Looking for a free AI girlfriend on Wsup specifically? That option is gone, but all four above have some free way in. If a big library of community characters was what you loved, read my SpicyChat review before you decide. None of them will give you back the haunted video store, but one of them can host the next one. The cards below list three close picks with their prices.

If an official page for the original app ever returns, which I don't expect, this page will say so. If you landed here from an old bookmark, you did nothing wrong: the link simply leads to now.gg now. The answers below cover what former users ask most.
